Continuous shooting I'm new to this so bare with me. I just got my Nikon D60 and I want to shoot pictures in continuous mode. I set it on manual, go into the menu and change it to continuous. I rotate the dial so it changes the shutter speed but when I take pictures it's just a black screen. As a matter of fact any time I try to take a picture in M it's just black. I'm hoping that there is just a setting I need to change and there's not something wrong with my camera. Thanks.

Hey man. Im not sure how new you are but basically i think your problem is you need to decrease the shutter speed to around 1/200-1/250 of a second and increase the apeture to around f10/12 and see if that works. If your operating at a high shutter s ...

The Monitor on my Nikon D80 does not show any image when I try to take a picture - The viewfinder is ok and the camera takes a picture ok and displays it for about 4 seconds on the monitor after taking it.
I can view the Menu's and can View existing pictures ok via the monitor.
Is there a way to switch the monitor off or on, tried the menus but cant see anything obvious.

I just some pictures with my SD card in my Nikon D40X. I've used the card many times, in fact I took some pictures last night and uploaded with no problem. When I was taking pictures today I looked back at them in camera and they were there. After I was done taking the pictures I took the card out of the camera and put it into my SD slot on my laptop, now they are not there. There aren't there when I put it back into the camera either.

My laptop turns off after connecting camera, i have an asus laptop, and after connecting the cord from camera to laptop the laptop shuts down and i have to disconnect and then reconnect everything to revive computer. i have downloaded pictures off my camera before onto this computer so i don't understand what the problem is. I recharged the battery of the camera so was at full power also.

Your laptop has to work harder when when things are connected to it thus getting hotter. it's more than likely going into thermal shutdown because the fan is dirty and blocking the cooling exhaust hence no cold air circulation.have this cleaned ...

Missing shots I have a Coolpix L18/L16 Nikon and I am missing all of my pictures. I take them but by the time the shot goes through the picture is lost. It continually results in pictures where my daughter's eyes are closed. What can I do? I am guessing that some setting is off which makes it take too long to snap the photo.

Your camera works fine, but they made it like this, so you should push the button all the way down, not half way, because when you push half way, the camera focus on the target, and the little lasers flash, but that is no shoot... on the other hand, ...

My Dell laptop running Vista will not recognize my camera (Samsung BL103). The USB port works fine for other things, just not when connected to the camera.

Downloading problem I bought a Nikon D80 in November of 2007 and it has been operating fine since. However today I tried to download some pictures onto my computer using Photoshop Elements 4.0. About half the pictures downloaded properly and the other half did not. A dialogue box indicated that the file may be damaged or in a form that cannot be supported by the organizer. I thought that the card might have gone bad so I put it in another camera and it worked fine. I then put a different c

It just might be that the card has reached its end of life cycle. Usually the higher end SLR's are more sensitive to cards than normal point and shoots. Since its a Nikon, I would invest in a Lexar card. If the same problem persists, y ...

Just got a 500mm f8.0 Telephoto Lens for my Nikon D90. When I connect it according to the instructions I am certain I have mounted the lens properly to my camera, I have a universal T mount to connect to my Nikon. When I turn on the camera, It flashes in the top info LCD F- -, My thought is that this is the F-Stop or the Focal length which I will need to select on the lens and input on the camera somehow, am I on the right track since I am a novice. It will not take a picture through this len

The lens lacks the electronics to communicate with the camera. You must switch the camera to Manual exposure mode by turning the mode dial to M. The lens has only aperture, f/8, and so you have to control the exposure by changing the shutter speed an ...

Dark photos I am a new Nikon user and have the D80. This is way more camera than I will ever need. I can not take pictures without them being dark not even in the auto mode. This is inside or outside I have two lenses and have switched them and it's still dark. I was able to change the exposer to get them lighter but would think you could take pictures in auto that would be fine.

I have a Nikon D80 camera that is about 1 year old. I has worked fine until about 6 months ago. Sometimes when I turn it on and press the button to take the picture nothing happens. I have to wait awhile and keep playing with the button and then it will finally take the picture and act normal. This happens inside and out. Sometimes the flash will pop up outside in direct sunlight. Do I have some settings wrong or why is it acting like this?

Are you getting a Err message? If so The ERR message is not a good thing. Read page 132 of the D80 Manual. Also, try a factory reset found on page 129 of the manual. On the left side of the camera is the terminal cover, inside below the USB connector ...
